JIS G3106 SM570 Steel Plate | SM570 Mill Direct Supply
What is JIS G3106 SM570 Steel Plate?
As a professional steel plate supplier and China Mill-Direct Exporter, SHH STEEL is pleased to present JIS G3106 SM570 Steel Plate.
SM570 is a high-strength rolled steel for welded structures under the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS G3106. It provides a minimum yield strength of 460 MPa (for thickness ≤ 16 mm) and a tensile strength range of 570–720 MPa. This is the highest strength grade commonly supplied under JIS G3106 and is designed for heavy-duty welded structures that require higher load-bearing capacity while maintaining good weldability.
This grade belongs to the JIS G3106 STEEL PLATE series. SHH STEEL supplies SM570 as Mill Direct Supply, sourcing directly from major Chinese steel mills. This ensures competitive mill pricing, consistent quality, shorter lead times and full traceability. We offer thicknesses from 6 mm to 100 mm (subject to standard and mill limitations), widths up to 3000–4000 mm and lengths up to 12000–18000 mm. Custom cutting, shot blasting and priming services are available. All plates are delivered with full Mill Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1 or equivalent).

Tolerances
Dimensional tolerances for SM570 steel plate follow JIS G3193 or equivalent international standards (EN 10029 / ASTM A6).
- Thickness, width and length tolerances according to the ordered class.
- Flatness according to applicable standard.
- Edge conditions: Mill edge or cut edge (flame / plasma).
Tighter tolerances can be provided upon request.
Weldability
SM570 is a higher-strength structural steel. Successful welding requires careful control of heat input, preheating (especially for thicker plates), and the use of low-hydrogen consumables.
Recommended welding consumables:
| Welding Process | Recommended Consumables |
|---|---|
| SMAW (Stick) | E8018, E9018 |
| GMAW (MIG/MAG) | ER80S-D2, ER90S-D2 |
| FCAW | E81T1, E91T1 |
| SAW | EH14 / matching high-strength flux |
Preheating is generally recommended. Interpass temperature control and, in some cases, post-weld heat treatment should be considered for critical applications.
